From the bomber into a New Belgium globe. No freshness date noticeable.

Pours a hazy orange with a fluffly head. Nice lacing down the glass.

Nose is pretty uneventful, slight malt background with some floral hops in there as well.

Taste is what you would expect from a pale ale. Citrus and floral hops up front with a caramel malt backbone.

Medium bodies with carbonation on the lower side.

Overall not a bad APA. Nothing revolutionary but solid none the less. I'm heading to the Vineyard this summer and will be stopping by Offshore a couple of times and will probably grab a pint of this if available.

From the 22 fl. oz. bottle. Sampled on July 29, 2012. The pour is an attractive looking copper-amber with an off-white, soapy head that lingers for the entire session.

The aroma has a nice balance of sweet malts and light earthy or floral hops. But the nose is more sweet.

The body is around medium and smooth.

The taste begins sweet but the moderate, hopped bitterness swiftly takes over and presents itself as in charge. In some respects this reminds me more of an American IPA. It is a decent beer with which to wallow away the time.

A: The beer is a light amber color, with a large off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.

S: The aroma contains caramelized malts, earthy hops and some citrus.

T: The taste starts out bready with a hearty but not too heavy malt character up front. Then some mild sweetness comes in from flavors of caramel and citrus. The hops presence is strong but not over-powering and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly bready and slightly sweet.

Poured into an imperial pint glass, formed a 1/2" beige head over the slightly cloudy amber brew. Head fades gradually, with plenty of sticky lacing. Aroma is lightly sweet with a vegetal hops character.

Taste starts slightly worty, has a citrus tang in the middle, and closes with earthy hops bitterness. Mouthfeel is reasonably smooth, soft over the tongue, and drinkability is alright. Flavor just isn't working for me on this one.

Pours a clear, amber color with some orange hues. Not much in the way of a head, maybe a thin cap, and what does develop disappears very quickly. Not much in the way of lacing. Occasionally a thin line of foam is left on the glass but it slides back down fairly quickly.

The nose isn't all that strong but it does lean towards the malty side. Sweet caramel malt is present almost immediately. Pale malt makes an appearance, too. Some floral hop aromas are here but they are faint as well. Really not much else going on.

The taste follows extremely closely with the nose. Floral hops are here but sort of seem lose as the sweet malt background comes to the foreground. There is a slight bitterness in the semi-dry finish but it disappears as quickly as it shows up.

Body on the lighter side of medium with carbonation somewhere in the middle. Semi-dry throughout, but even more so at the finish. The weaker flavors and aromas seem to make it feel thinner than it probably is.

Overall, this is a below average beer. Light malts and even lighter hops don't play well with the mouthfeel of the beer. It's somewhat dry yet seems thin and almost watery at the same time due to the lack of flavor.

A yellow-ish golden-brown colored ale served cold in a pint glass this brings a decent off-white froth that maintains a thin cover and generous lacing. The aroma is a simple clean caramel wheat with a grassy edge. The flavor comes on with a crisp wheat-grass and a mild lemon edge over caramel malt. It’s very crisp in feel with a medium light body and light but frisky carbonation. It’s a tad aqueous, but not in a bad way for such a refreshing ale. I also get some skunk cabbage that adds a neat bitterness. Overall I enjoyed this edgy pale ale. It’s not the citrus-pine sort of hoppiness I crave most, but it delivered an interesting and refreshing ale treat.

Appearance is a darkened yellow tone with a thin head.The smell of MCPA is really basic, with some malt and hops present, but not overpowering. Taste has a slight stronger presence with similar elements and a bit of bitterness in the aftertaste. Mouthfeel is ok, with appropriate carbonation levels for this pale ale. Drinkability is also ok. Overall, this beer is a good option versus BMC when on the cape/islands.
